Built in Bormio, Italy, the Ski Trab Titan Vario.2 Blue is a study in elegant restraint—ultralight, mechanically precise, and purpose-built for ski tourers who move fast and travel far. Stripped of excess (no brake, no fluff), this binding delivers uncompromising functionality with exceptional release quality in a remarkably low-weight package.

At just 250 grams, the Vario.2 Blue is engineered around Ski Trab’s signature Titanium Core toe system. Independent jaws flex and adapt to the boot, improving retention while reducing the risk of unwanted release. Underfoot, a refined heel unit provides generous elasticity and tunable release ranges, creating a smooth, predictable feel whether you’re skinning long approaches or committing to the fall line.

This is touring gear at its most distilled—light, reliable, and built to last.

• Minimalist setup with no ski brake

Toe Piece Technology

Titanium Core System
A single titanium component links the toe jaws, allowing them to function independently rather than symmetrically. This elegant design improves elasticity, enhances boot retention, and significantly reduces the likelihood of accidental release.

Entry is simple and intuitive: engage the lever by hand or pole, step in, and lock. The elastic titanium wire adapts to all compatible boot inserts, while precision-machined pins actively clear snow and ice during use.

Independent Titanium Jaws
Each jaw responds individually to movement, increasing safety and consistency compared to traditional pin systems.

Roto-Riveted Pins
Hardened steel pins with self-cleaning hollows are roto-riveted for long-term durability and secure anchoring.
